I just went with my parents for a short vacation down in Oregon. We have relatives down there and went down for a very quick family reunion. I got a few nice scenery shots and such, so I thought I'd share. This is the first time I've actually taken the digi somewhere. :p

Bear with me, there is quite a few! Here is a shot from the drive there, right before we took the bride to Oregon. I present, the Columbia River! :)

Here is another shot that probably sucks to most of you, but I'm darned proud of it. :flex: This was taken as we drove along the bridge at a good 55 mph, out the dirty car window, from the opposite side of the car! SO HA! :p

Alright now it's the next day, and we're crabbing. Rented a boat, pots, and bait, and we're across a different river setting up "camp". :p Here's "the boys" starting our fire! That's my uncle on the left, then my dad walking away, and cousin in front.

The first of two crabs we caught. Yippee! :p He was a mean sucker... I'm just sad I didn't get to eat him. Too many people for only two crabs! :X

Check out what we used for bait in one of our pots! :eek: BIG fish head!! I was trying to figure out what kind of fish it was, still dunno. Was cool to get to look at the gills and everything up close though. :nod: Even though he was gross... :sick:

A shot from the boat of a bunch of horses on the beach. There were two foals with them, that was cool!! :D And I'm proud of my photography from a rocking and speedy boat, haha.

Last but not least, here is my 9 year old cousin Timmy, on "Tim's Isle"!! It was quickly disappearing though.. he had to jump off right after I took the picture. His island was destroyed by a "tidal wave!" :lol:
